Worse for most, good for few

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

As world hasn't gotten into an agreement about changes regarding the climate change the world has gotten much warmer. Population has either started shrinking in areas that are no longer easily habitable or started moving towards better areas which are now getting crowded.
This of course affects health and wellbeing of the population.
Technology/science rushes forwards with the possibility to live off planet sooner rather than later it seems that the option is only for the most wealthy. It is true that technological breakthroughs could also make lives easier and better but at what cost? There are always those who'd profit which in turn makes benefiting from said progress expensive for everyone. Working definitely might change with automatic/remote controlled robots or such. But still the lower classes would'nt have that luxory.

Notes about the quiestionaire. The given/estimated 5 minutes is nowhere near enough time to collect thoughts/visions about possible future. Also there was no option to decline after clicking the link in email as there usually is.

Changeons le monde
En 2040, j'aimerai que l'Homme soit moins individualiste. Qu'il ne pense pas en priorité à ses propres intérêts mais plutôt à l'intérêt collectif, à l'environnement et à la planète qui souffre de tant d'indifférence. Si chacun y met du sien il est possible de freiner le réchauffement climatique et les catastrophes qui s'intensifient au fil des années.

Green Future
In 2040 I would like the future to be made of green cities and streets. Sustainable homes and non-polluting means of transport everywhere. Schools open to all without any fees or fees. Jobs where people are really happy to stay and share things in all areas of life.

Demokratija ir teisingumas
A future without aggression, without warring over natural resources, with a sensible choice of the Green Deal, without putting all the burden on European countries. Ensuring democracy and equality. Red tape reduced, emigration controlled. European traditions preserved, tighter control over the behaviour of foreigners and the culture they impose. Rein in the oligarchs. Make medical treatment equally accessible to all, with control of the pharmaceutical industry. Invent cures for cancer and other incurable diseases. Ensure a dignified old age. Healthy diets without laboratory products. Accessible education, science and culture.

Harmonia przyszłości
The year is 2040, and the world is quiet, but full of new possibilities. There are no more traffic jams in cities, and the air is cleaner than ever before, thanks to advanced atmospheric cleaning technology. People travel the streets in zero-emission vehicles that float above the surface thanks to magnetism. Homes are energy self-sufficient, and CO2-absorbing water and air technology have become the norm. Between 2025 and 2040, humanity realized the dream of global cooperation in the fight against climate change. Breakthroughs in renewable energy have made it possible to become completely independent of fossil fuels. Societies have become more sustainable, and inequalities have begun to erode, thanks to equality in access to technology and resources. While much has changed, the challenge still remains the human psyche. Technologies can improve our lives, but the real change is the ability to live in harmony with each other and the planet. The future is not only about innovation, but also internal transformation.
